marklib

Well done! I know it is not an easy task to do. I built something fairly similar (and way less quick) http://jsfiddle.net/2XLBr/ and the git repo:…

Well done - works surprisingly well on my iPhone. Working with text selection in the browser is notoriously difficult so I'm glad this works.

This is really great. I think we're going to use this for helping us highlight parts of the YC application that sticks out to the partners. Very interesting to see that what you…

Thank you. So am I correct in thinking this would be useful if you wanted to let people select a portion of an article and save just that portion to a database? (If so, I'll be…

I get inconsistent results when I triple-click to create the selection. For example, triple-clicking the word "Start" in the first paragraph highlights the entire first line,…

yeah, It will report the underlying textnode (if you are lucky). It's really inconsistent across browsers: some report the h1 tag, some the underlying node. Depends also how far…

I noticed that you can mark an already marked section, which adds the marked color on top again, and again and again until you can't tell anymore because alpha = 100.

There is a weird behavior when you highlight something that has partially already been highlighted. I think you should take a look at how `preview` on osx does it. It cancels the…

It seems like using a tree-index based path, this serialization format would only work with purely static content. If you have a change to the underlying content (e.g. adding a…

Seems like a good candidate for a bookmarklet that injects it into any page.

My thoughts exactly. This should be a chrome plugin.

Thanks for sharing this. Great work!. I was wondering if it would mark a second time and third and I could test it in the small demo. It meet my expectations :) Great work! Two…

Might be worth adding this to adding these notes to the README.

Did you take inspiration from Rangy (https://github.com/timdown/rangy) and if yes, what makes Marklib better? Would like to know if there are obvious benefits to using Marklib…

At the risk of sounding a bit grumpy but I'm genuine here, I seriously don't get this tool. Is not the same thing as getSelection() with a CSS background-color cherry on the top…

Is there a good library that does the same inside a textarea?

Did you take inspiration from Rangy (https://github.com/timdown/rangy) and if yes, what makes Marklib better? Would like to know if there are obvious benefits to using Marklib…

We were working on a Medium-style text editor for a while and text selection is notoriously hard. Things like https://github.com/timdown/rangy somehow made it more palatable but…

There is also https://github.com/SmartTeleMax/MaSha MaSha has ajax support. But no library supports multiple colors :(
